C G C
I am a mermaid
F
But I've sold my voice
C
For a couple of feet
G
That always bleed
F C
When I go walking in the road

C G C
I am a mermaid
F
But I've sold my voice
C
For a couple of feet
G
And they always bleed
F
No matter how I clean

G
And I once saw a most beautiful man
F C
at the local record store
G
He bumped into me and said,
Well excuse me, young ma'am, but
F C
haven't I seen those pretty eyes somewhere before?
Am G
I smiled, but gestured at my throat
F C C/B
To show that I was mute
Am G
Well, he quickly stared down at the floor
F
And shuffled in his boots
F
Aw, he was out of there so fast

C G C
I am a mermaid
F
But I've sold my voice
C
For a midnight train
G
And a bump of cocaine
F C
And an old photo of Ballets Russes

C G C
I am a mermaid
F
But I have sold my voice
C
For a bottle of gin
G
'Cause I can't swim
F
And I sure don't want to float

G
Oh, I was so lonely walking out of that store
F C
And back into the busy people street
G
When I overhead, I heard an argument
F C
A woman opened up her window, threw a flower pot from it
Am G
I was startled by the crash
F C C/B
But went over to find the little plant
Am G F
I quickly emptied it out my coffee paper cup and
Adopted it
F
Transplanted it
F
Took it home and
F
Named it Mozart

C G C
I am a mermaid
F
But I've sold my voice
C
And I got rid of my tail
G
At a junkyard sale
F C
Along with some favorite childhood toys

C G C
I am a mermaid
F
But I have sold my voice
C
For a couple of feet
G
And they always bleed
F C
No matter how I clean
C
For a couple of feet
G
And they always bleed
F C
No matter how I clean
C
For a couple of feet
G
That tend to bleed
F
When I go wa-wa-walking
C C F C...
In the streeeeeeeet
